What happened to reduce the membership and power of the knights and labor?
As in any developing country, labor and employing companies always had their differences. The Knights of Labor group was the first well recognized labor union and it was all inclusive, meaning almost anybody (women, blacks and but not Chinese) was welcomed. I think the Chinese were admitted at a later date. After the American Federation of Labor (AFL) was formed, the Knights of Labor fell out of favor and disappeared. The major difference was the Knights of Labor formed the foundation upon which the AFL was born. Their demise was a natural evolution of the labor movement in this country. The Knights of Labor lacked good management and their inability to carry out successful strikes for their members caused their ranks to be recruited by the AFL.

How did the haymarcket square riot impact the knights of labor?
The Haymarket Square Riot in 1886 significantly impacted the Knights of Labor by associating the labor movement with violence and radicalism. Although the Knights were not directly involved in the incident, public perception shifted negatively towards labor organizations, leading to a decline in membership and support. The event heightened fears of anarchism, making it more challenging for the Knights to advocate for their goals of workers' rights and better conditions. Ultimately, the riot contributed to the fragmentation of the labor movement and the rise of more conservative organizations, like the American Federation of Labor (AFL).
